@Aussiecollector don’t suppose you have any pictures of the giant that you could share?

@Aussiecollector can you give us a short description of how the bat feels and what is comparable in the old range? Wouldn’t have a bat from the new range with a big bow? Not a powerbow....some other name  ;)

@Aussiecollector can we have a new thread, cataloguing all of your prize willows? Every photo you post has a whole host of interesting bats in the back of it!

Are these Indian made? As it only states 'designed in' on the stickers?

The only noticeable between Indian & Oz made are the handle cap and the use of Zinc Oxide tape.

Really depends on the grade. Assuming we are not talking about Readydead, I mean readypress. Indian made ones for the Aussie market feel a tiny bit softer. I’d say the hydralic presses are calibrated the same. Difference is adjustments for willow moisture. Both have the same characteristics of feeling medium/hard pressed and once oiled and played in they get up and boogie.

£800 for a bat? Obscene!

Giant ordered  ;)

Does any of the forum's resident Oz GN experts know if the Ultrabow 750 is going to be handmade in Oz?

It appears to have the Oz made stickers but I can't see in the description it being mentioned anywhere.
